·BSL students who have finished their BSL level 3 (NVQ or non-NVQ)  and be on/completed an NVQ4 in BSL/Level 6 NVQ Certificate in BSL, who may be practising as Communication Support workers in further education, schools or employment.

·Students who have completed some initial interpreter training in a university setting and now want a more applied style of learning in a course that will allow them to register as a RSLI.

·Individuals changing occupation who have studied BSL in their spare time and are now committed to a new career.  They may have been through the NVQ assessments in BSL and are interested in a taught course in interpreting that will competently equip them for future employment as an interpreter, and allow them to register as Junior Trainee Interpreter and progress to Trainee Interpreter during the course.

This course will not be the quickest, cheapest or easiest, but conscientious students will want the challenges that this course brings.
